I'm published in a genealogy periodical

I picked up the Summer 2008 (Volume 45, No. 3) issue of The Searcher at the Southern California Genealogical Society Jamboree in June. I put the bag with all of the handouts and papers and periodicals that I obtained at the Jamboree in the corner to review it at my leisure.

Almost two months later, I found the bag of stuff (I was looking for the Legacy 7.0 CDROM, actually) and found The Searcher issue. I looked at the Table of Contents on the front cover, and noticed an interesting article there titled Online Family History Research Tutorial. "Hmm," I said to myself, "that looks like something to read."

I remembered then that Paula Hinkel of SCGS had asked if they could reprint my blog post and I readily agreed. Frankly, I had forgotten that I had submitted this for publication. Hopefully, some readers of The Searcher found Genea-Musings as a result of the article.

My point of this post isn't to brag about being published in The Searcher, although that is important to me, but to point out to genea-bloggers and readers that print publications can be a way to garner new blog readers.
